Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

King Kong I'm standing on top I've been on
I see now your fucking up on my vision
No reason you play me just like a keed song
You took off and left me up on the bleachers
Down bad with no bag
Given out my last hand
Damn these niggas really leeching
Cannot lose my life to a demon
I'm freezing
I was work and da was sleeping
Mama in the crib and she really stressing out
I was too young to even kno what dats about
I was in a jungle where I had ta hold it down
Dats where I was taught aint no pussies are allowed
Every other day it's like man down
From sun up to sundown
Don't play round
Mama won't you pray now
I'm a find a way out
With the top down in my lane now
You should look up on da face now used to face down
Thuggin when the rain out
Feeling like no way out
Depending and puffing up on this straight loud
Thinking imma make it to the top with the clouds
King Kong I'm standing on top I've been on
I see now your fucking up on my vision
No reason you play me just like a keed song
You took off and left me up on the bleachers
Down bad with no bag
Given out my last hand
Damn these niggas really leeching
Cannot lose my life to a demon
I'm freezing
I was work and da was sleeping
I was in the cold
I aint really have no coat
I was really going broke
I was posted with the bro's
I had really stuck to code
I had seen them losing hope
I seen tears on the floor
Damn that really left me cold
I could see clearly through the fog
I done seen all the lies they unfold
So don't ask why we don't get along
I can see how this all could go wrong
Couple shots down now we are on the road
Ain't no pretty bitch ever let me bone
I was down bad had to take control
Stack the bands up when it all got low
Now da see that im fly like a drone
Now dem pretty bitchs washing up da tone
I was broke now ah nigga got a make up
For all the times that we never had no paper
Finally realize I just had to wake up
Now I'm stuck to the money like a stapler
Henny shots yah I really told her take some
Gotta live it up knowing where we came from
Tears falling down when they heard he gun down
Traumatize and I'm numb now
Heart tore up as a young child
Dark clouds praying for the sun out hoping that it come out
King Kong I'm standing on top I've been on
I see now your fucking up on my vision
No reason you play me just like a keed song
You took off and left me up on the bleachers
Down bad with no bag
Given out my last hand
Damn these niggas really leeching
Cannot lose my life to a demon




I'm freezing
I was work and da was sleeping

Marvel hasn't ever shown Hulk's true power, not even close. Hulk is close to invincible. His strength and durability is virtually limitless. To take a peak at how strong Hulk is take a look at the Hulk 2003 movie: 'Hulk vs Helicopters - Hulk Smash Scene - Hulk (2003) Movie CLIP HD'
